"Twenty-four planes? Then we also have an air force! ”

The comrades suddenly cheered up, once upon a time, they fought with the Central Army of the Kuomintang and the Japanese army, and they had long suffered enough from the bombing of the other side's planes, but now fortunately, the Eighth Route Army also has its own air force.

Zhang Cheng said with a smile: "That's right, not only do we have the planes captured from the Japanese army, but our arsenal will also manufacture planes after we grow and grow in the future!" With regard to the Japanese air force, I plan to take advantage of the enemy's unknowledge that our Eighth Route Army has planes and to have the air force bomb Taiyuan Airport by the air force unit to destroy the Japanese air force in Taiyuan in one fell swoop. ”

When the political commissar heard this, he had to admire Zhang Cheng's strategy, if the Japanese army was not on guard against the air force units of the instructor, and suddenly bombed the Taiyuan airport when all the Japanese planes were parked at the airport, there was really a great possibility of destroying the air force units stationed in Taiyuan by the devils.

can be admired and admired, but the political commissar was not persuaded by Zhang Cheng, he continued to question: "Even if we solve the Taiyuan Air Force of the devil, but the Japanese army has at least 25,000 people in a division, plus Taiyuan Jiancheng, it is difficult for us to defeat Taiyuan with more than 40,000 instructors, and don't forget that the Japanese army's mobility ability is much stronger than ours, once we reach a stalemate in Taiyuan, the Japanese army from all directions will rush to reinforcements, and then we are likely to not only fail to take Taiyuan, but will be lost in the quagmire of Taiyuan." ”

After listening to the political commissar's calm analysis, Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, the generals who originally supported the attack on Taiyuan the most, also quieted down, although the political commissar's words were not good, but every sentence was on the point, if these problems were not solved, there would be no hope at all to attack Taiyuan.

Zhang Cheng said confidently: "My attack on Taiyuan was not forcibly attacked by my instructor alone, but under the guidance of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the instructor was the main attack, and the other brother units of the Eighth Route Army cooperated with a series of plans, all of which were interlocking, and each plan had complete steps.

First of all, other fraternal units of the Eighth Route Army carried out sabotage warfare behind enemy lines of the Japanese army, constantly sending small units to sabotage the Japanese army's railway trunk lines such as Pulu and Shitai Road, and attracting the Japanese army from Taiyuan as much as possible, reducing the strength of the Japanese army stationed in Taiyuan.

The second is to formally attack Taiyuan, we can first launch the underground party in Taiyuan, let them draw a map of Taiyuan city defense for us, and then arrange a special operations brigade to launch an attack in Taiyuan City, luring away the Japanese army's idea, and finally launch a surprise attack on the Taiyuan defenders, annihilating the Taiyuan Japanese army in one fell swoop, and taking Taiyuan City.

Finally, it is the last step of the plan, to empty Taiyuan City, to take the fruits of Yan Laoxi's hard work in Taiyuan for decades, and not leave a single child to the Japanese army. ”

After Zhang Cheng poured out all the plans for attacking Taiyuan, the cadres were completely convinced, and the political commissar also expressed their approval of this plan.

After all the members of the divisional party committee signed the battle plan for attacking Taiyuan, Zhang Cheng ordered the radio communications personnel to send it to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army for approval.

After receiving the telegram from the instructor, in order to keep it secret, the commander only summoned Mr. Zhu, Mr. Peng, and Ye Shuai to discuss Zhang Cheng's seemingly "bold" plan.

After seeing that everyone had finished browsing the plan, the commander went straight to the point and said: "Everyone has read Zhang Cheng's battle plan, whether it can be implemented or not, let's talk about it." ”

Mr. Peng was the first to speak: "I agree with the instructor's plan to attack Taiyuan, at present, the Japanese army has won successive battles in North China and Central China, and the magic capital is about to be occupied by them, and the arrogance is very arrogant, if our Eighth Route Army can defeat Taiyuan, it can severely deal a blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army and boost the morale and confidence of the people of the whole country to resist Japan." ”

Mr. Peng likes to fight in the big corps, in 1930 there was a feat of 8,000 people to defeat Changsha in Hunan Province, after seeing Zhangcheng's plan to fight Taiyuan, Mr. Peng felt that the layout of Changsha was similar to his plan to fight Changsha, so Mr. Peng first stood up and strongly supported.

After Mr. Zhu pondered for a long time, he felt that this Taiyuan could really fight, so he said: "From the perspective of the battle plan, it is already very perfect, there is no room for change, the key is to see how the execution ability is, if the execution is guaranteed, I support the fight in Taiyuan." ”

Ye Shuai also thought that there was no problem in taking Taiyuan, and he also agreed with Zhang Cheng's plan to fight Taiyuan.

After listening to everyone's opinions, the commander did not speak for a long time, smoking the cigarette in his hand while calculating the pros and cons of fighting Taiyuan.

Mr. Peng couldn't see others swallowing slowly, and when he saw the commander's excellent appearance, he couldn't help but get anxious, and he urged: "Lao Mao, to beat you or not, it's a sentence!" ”

The commander extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said unhurriedly; "Mr. Peng, don't worry! From the perspective of the plan, every step of Zhang Cheng's design is very perfect, as long as the execution is enough, it will not be a problem to take Taiyuan at all, but I am thinking about the situation after taking Taiyuan. If Taiyuan is defeated by our Eighth Route Army, it is very likely that our Eighth Route Army will replace the Kuomintang Army and become the target of the Japanese army. ”

After hearing the commander-in-chief's concerns, everyone fell silent, although the Eighth Route Army has won successive battles since it embarked on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, but they also see the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, and the combat strength of individual soldiers is far above the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, if the Japanese army really attacks the base area of the Eighth Route Army on a large scale, they really do not have much confidence in whether they can repel the Japanese attack.

At this time, Ye Shuai stood up and spoke, and he said categorically: "Even if there are such and such concerns, I think Taiyuan should still fight, I think we may all have walked into a misunderstanding." When we were in the southern Jiangxi Soviet region, our Workers' and Peasants' Party was faced with the encirclement and suppression of the Central Army of the Kuomintang and warlords all over the country, and we were surrounded by enemies on all sides, so we developed the habit of solving problems on our own.

This habit has both advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that we, the Workers' and Peasants' Party, have always insisted on independence and self-determination, and do not need to rely on others; The disadvantage is that it cannot get along with forces outside the party, and it is easy to be isolated once it encounters difficulties.

However, now is the period of cooperation between the workers and workers, and the strength of the Japanese army is much stronger than that of our Workers' and Peasants' Party and the Kuomintang's Party combined; although our Workers' and Peasants' Party and the Kuomintang's party have different parties, after all, they are both Chinese and are allies; if the Japanese army dares to go all out to attack our base areas, then the Kuomintang's troops will surely stand up and recover the lost territory, so in order to prevent the counterattack of the Kuomintang's army, it is impossible for the Japanese army to exert all its strength to fight us. ”
